Shaping our Future

From humble beginnings come great things – that is the heritage of today’s Husson University.

In a complex global society there is no greater calling than to educate the next generation of leaders. This is the essence of Husson’s mission since its founding in 1898. This commitment to transforming students’ lives through education makes Husson the “University of Choice” for premier professional programs where students succeed, experiential learning is championed, and global understanding is promoted.

The ascension of Husson University from a small business school to a respected institution of higher learning has not always been easy. Through it all, Husson’s guiding principle of educating individuals while instilling character and humility has stood the test of time. Today, over 3,400 students attend classes on the Bangor flagship campus and our regional Maine satellites in Presque Isle, Wells, and Westbrook. Husson is the only private University in Maine which spans the entire state. The education our students receive shapes their future and that of our own.

In an increasingly challenging higher education environment, it is critical to ensure that Husson can continue to deliver the same high quality education it has provided to students for over 100 years. It is with our eye on the future that Husson boldly moves forward to challenge its friends and family to engage in the University’s first comprehensive capital campaign.

The University’s duty to current and future generations of students is considerable. We accept the great calling of transforming student lives with the same character and humility that has guided Husson since its early days. We also know that this mission cannot be achieved without your help. Together, you and Husson will continue, Shaping our Future.
